It was hard to choose just one figure, but I feel figure 3.3 is a great tool to have assess to. It provides so much information to be used in the classroom. It helps to find where a student is, what they find difficult and how to help them. Along with guiding teachers to the chapters that can address these difficulties. Often times I find it easy to figure out what a student can do, and even where they are struggling, the difficult part is knowing what the student needs help with and where to go to get that help. I am glad I decided to do this book study, this book provides so many great strategies that I have not been aware of or used, along with so many useful tools/guides in the appendix. I will use this book frequently throughout the school year, referring to it when needed.
I am so glad to hear this! It was one of those books that I wished I had read sooner. There is so many helpful tools, that it would have a spot on the corner of my desk for planning purposes.
I find it hard to figure out what they can do as well, and sometimes when they struggle they shut down and it makes it more difficult. I plan on using this as well.
